I. 

The Kaiser claims dominion over all men on the earth, 
He claims it through the accident and circumstance of birth, 
He asserts he is God's chosen, but fails to prove his worth, 
Freedom is marching on. 
Refrain — 

Say, Bill, there's lots of reasons Why we want to speak with you, 
We are looking for that meeting And intend to see it through. 

2. 

The Kaiser gives his orders in the mighty name of God, 
He feeds men to the cannon just to fertilize the sod, 
But old boy your time is coming, Justice wields a stinging rod. 
Our God is marching on. 
Refrain — 

3. 

The Kaiser's claims were challenged when a neighbor prince 

was slain, 
He issued then the call to war, and won the mark of Cain, 
He is living out the part of one whose acts are all insane. 
Reason is marching on. 
Refrain — 

4. 

The Kaiser set his ambush, caused the sale of foreign stocks, 
While he was acting as decoy by Norway's western rocks: 
The thing that shows him guilty was just that selling stocks.* 
The truth is marching on. 
Refrain — 

5. 

The Kaiser leagued with Turkey in a comprehensive plan, 
It brought a mighty sadness to the poor Armenian, 
Turkey mustered two weeks early: — Oh you sinful Kaiser-man!f 
God's truth is marching on. 
Refrain —

FOREWORD 

This study is the expression of a conviction that the scientific should replace 
the polemic method of Scriptural interpretation. 

Scripture and the proven facts of history and science we accept. Those parts 
of Daniel that are merely historic, and the prophetic parts fulfilled before the 
Nativity, we omit. Dealing then, with those prophecies which relate to the 
Christian era, we seek a solution for the problems of Daniel and Revelation. 

The Moses-Ezekiel key of a day for a year was certainly used in the proph- 
ecy of 69 weeks. (Dan. 9:2427) Between the giving "of the commandment to 
restore and to build Jerusalem" and Christ's annointing by Mary before his death, 
was 7x69 or 483 years. The chronology of those times has been worked out and 
is now reliable: See Encyclopedia Americana, Edition of 1906, or other modern 
works. 

Revelation falls naturally into seven descriptive groups. These divide into 
seven columns, cutting the groups at a right-angle. When the problems of the 
fourth column and the fourth group are solved, you will know yourself whether 
this is the true solution. The One Who gave John this vision suffered on the 
cross, and He hid a cross in the vision that the patient searcher who strives to 
find His truth may see and grasp it. 

Almost all the difficult problems in Revelation center in either the fourth 
group or the fourth column. In making such a chart of Revelation this fact will 
surely confront the worker. When he looks at his work the perfection of the 
cross's outline, together with his other discoveries, is convincing. 

The author is fresh from such an experience. The product of his work ap- 
pears in the chart in the middle of this booklet. The text explains the chart.

SEVENTY WEEKS. 
Reading' Text. 

World War raises the question: Is 
tftere a prophecy in our Bible that 
tells what the War's outcome will be"? 

Some months ago, with this ques- 
tion in mind, I secured a study by 
Rev. I). Y. Schultz on Revelation. Its 
suggestion led toe to put the descrip- 
tive figures of Revelation in parallel 
columns. The method worked so well 
that finally, I discovered the seven 
complete sets of parallel descriptions. 
The whole text of the book of Revela- 
tion thus divides itself into a chrono- 
logical harmony. This discovery and 
the evidence of its genuineness are 
submitted to your critical judgment. 

Let us now examine the evidence. 

Mdhamme'daiis believe there are six 
great prophets. (a) Their list reads 
Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Christ 
and Mohammed. (b) 

George Sale says Mohammed began 
to teach in fill A. D.(c) 

The Christian Church was then 
strong and active, but less military 
than the Mohammedan church soon 
became. The- two churches continued 
side by side down to our time. They 
were always rivals, and often, as in 
the Crusades were in sharp conflict. 
Each worshipped one God. Each was 
a group of believers held together by 
a common faith. Xo other spectacle 
in history is so good a likeness for the 
two prophels(d) mentioned in Revela- 
tion. 

Just 1260 years stand between the 
time when Mohammed began to teach, 
and the time Temporal Power was 
withdrawn from the Pope by the Ital- 
ian Government. Forceful Mohamme- 
dan proselyting through the use of the 
sword compelled the Christian Church

swered and said, Master, we saw one 
casting out demons in thy name; and 
we forbade him, because he folloAved

Forbid him not; for he that is not 
against you is for you." 

(c) Geo. Sale's Life of Mohammed, 
page 10, "Mohammed was born in the 
year of our Lord 571 — Mohammed at 
the age of 40, after completing the 
period of probation in the cell, assumed 
the title of Apostle of God, with none 
but Khadijah as the fruits of his ex- 
ertions." 

(d) Rev. 11 :3-12 "And I will give 
unto my two witnesses, and they shall 
prophesy a thousand two hundred and 
three score days, clothed in sack cloth. 
These are the two olive trees and the 
two candle sticks, standing before the 
Lord of the earth. And if any man 
desireth to hurt them, fire proceedeth 
out of their mouth and devoureth their 
enemies • and if any man shall desire, 
to Kurt them, in this manner must he 
be killed. These have the power to 
shut the heaven that it rain not during 
the days of their* prophecy; and they 
have power over the waters to turn 
them into blood, and to smite the earth 
with every plague, as often as they shall 
desire. And when they shall have fin- 
ished their testimony, the beast that 
eometh up out of the abyss shall make 
Avar with them, and overcome them, 
and kill them. And their dead bodies 
lie in the street of the great city, which 
spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, 
Avhere also their Lord was crucified. 
And from among the peoples and tribes 
and tongues and nations do men look 
upon their dead bodies three days and 
a half, and suffer not their dead bodies 



to oppose force with force. This 
brought Temporal Power which con- 
tinued until 1260 years after Moham- 
lued began preaching. 

Let us assume that these 1260 years 
mark the limits of a Day(e) in the Sev- 
entieth Week of Daniel's prophecy. 
From the crucifixion to Constantine's 
Edict of Toleration is the usually con- 
ceded limit for the First Day of Daniel's 
Seventieth Week. The Second Day ap- 
pears to continue to the time Moham- 
med began teaching. It stretches from 
§13 to 611 A. D. 

The Third Day lasts from 611 to 
1871 A. D. The limits of these Days 
are indicated m the Books of Daniel 
and Revelation and in history. 

Weave now living in the Fourth .Day 
of Daniel's Seventieth Week. The 
proof for these assumptions follows: 

A sludy of the events of the Fourth 
Day(f) shows that there is then to be 
a great war. (g) Daniel in his second 
chapter describes, four governments and 
a stone which crushes the feet of tho 
image representing those governments. 
The stone later grows and fills the 
whole earth. Again in his seventh (10 
chapter Daniel describes these four 
governments as beasts. The fourth 
beast is killed and his body destroyed. 
Then follows a government through 
the saints of tin' jVLqst Ui^h through- 
out all the world. The fourth govern- 
ment in each group is the Roman Em- 
pire. 

"Revelation gives us a picture of two 
prophets who teach with power from 
God 1260 days. They are then hided 
and lie dead three and a half days. 
Moses and Elijah are usually supposed 
to be identical with these two proph- 
ets. If a day for a year by the Moses- 
Ivekiel(i) rule, is applied to the time 
these prophets nrc- nctive; it is not un- 



to be laid in a tomb. And they that 
dwell on the earth rejoice over them, 
and make merry ; and they shall send 
gifts one to another; because these 
two prophets tormented them that 
dwell on the earth. And after the 
three days and a half the breath of 
1 i i e from God entered into them, and 
they stood upon their feet; and great 
fear fed upon them that beheld them. 
And they heard a great voice from 
heaven saying unto them, Come up 
1 lit her. And they went up into heaven 
in the cloud; and their enemies beheld 
them." 

(e) Dan. 9:24-25 "Seventy weeks 
are decreed upon thy people and upon 
thy holy city, to finish transgression, 
and to make an end of sins, and to 
make reconciliation for iniquity, and 
to bring in everlasting righteousness, 
and In seal up vision and prophecy, and 
to anoint the most holy. Know there- 
fore and discern, that from the going 
forth of ( he commandment to restore 
and to build Jerusalem unto the 
anointed one, the prince, shall be seven 
weeks, and threescore and two weehs: 
i1 shall be built again, with street 
and moat, even in troublous times." 

(f) See chart on middle pages. 

Ig) Rev. 6:7-8 "And when he 
opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice 
of the fourth living creature saying, 
Come. And T saw, and behold, a pale 
horse: and he that sat upon him, his 
name was Death; and Hades followed 
with him. And there was given unto 
them authority over the fourth part 
of the earth, to kill with sword, and 
with famine, and with death, and by 
the wild beasts of the earth." 

(h) Dan. 7:7-8 and 11, also 15-27 
"After tliis I saw in the night-visions, 
and, behold, a fourth beast, terrible and 
powerful, and strong exceedingly ; and 
it had great iron teeth; it devoured 



cler this rule possible to use the histor- 
ical nativity of Elijah, for he lived less 
than a thousand years before Christ. 

The figure is so wide reaching as to 
justify the belief that a day for a year 
is intended. We must decide whether 
Ihe Jewish church and the Christian 
church are the prophets. 

There are difficulties, but we can 
eliminate the Jew as a possibility dur- 
ing the first half of the period of the 
Seventieth Week,(e) because history 
ami the prophecies of Daniel (j) and 
New Testament writers give this half 
week period to the Centiles. This 
leaves only the Mohammedau and 
Christinu churches. Mohammed began 
teaching in 611 A. D. and made his 
church strongly military, (k) This 
compelled similar action in the Chris- 
tian church. The Pope soon won from 
Iwivt'iina, Lombardy and the Franks, 
a triple crown, as a temporal ruler. 
In 1871 A. D. Temporal Power was 
withdrawn by an act of the Italian 
Parliament, and other influences and 
forces. The number of years between 
Ihe cause and the conclusion of Tem- 
poral Power is just 1260.(1) 

The Moses-Ezekiel key(i) of a day 
for a year was used by Daniel(e) in 
his prophecy of sixty-nine weeks. We 
therefore assume that Daniel's other 
future-time prophecies should be solved 
by the same key. 

A study and comparison of Daniel 
and Revelation leads to the belief that 
the two are intended to supplement 
each other. We therefore use the 
Moses-Ezekiel Key constantly in both 
Daniel and Revelation. 

Daniel fixes one of his time-proph- 
ecies(m) upon a certain future event, 
when the burnt offering would cease, 
and the desolating transgression should 
be committed. This occurred in 169 



and brake in pieces, and stamped the 
residue with its feet: and it Avas diverse 
from all the beasts that were before 
it; and it had ten horns. I considered 
the horns, and, behold, there came up 
among them another horn, a little one, 
before which three of the first horns 
were plucked up by the roots: and, 
behold, in this horn were eyes like the 
eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking 
gr.eat things. * * * I beheld at 
that time because of the voice of the 
great words which the horn spake; I 
beheld even till the beast was slain, and 
its body destroyed, and it was given to 
be burned with fire. * * * As for 
me, Daniel, my spirit was grieved in 
the midst of my body, and the visions 
of my head troubled me. I came 
near unto one of them that stood by, 
and asked him the truth concerning all 
t his. So he told me and made me know 
the interpretation of the things. These 
great beasts, which are four, are four 
kings, that shall arise out of the 
earth. But the saints of the Most 
Btign shall receive the kingdom, and 
possess 1he kingdom forever, even for- 
ever and ever. Then I desired to know 
the truth concerning the fourth beasl, 
which was diverse from all of them, 
exceeding terrible, whose teeth were of 
iron, and its nails of brass; which de- 
voured, brake in pieces, and stamped 
the residue with its feet; and concern- 
ing the ten horns that were on its head, 
and the other horn which came up, and 
before which three fell, even that horn 
that had eyes, and a mouth that spake 
great things, whose look was more stout 
than its fellows. I beheld, and the 
same horn made Avar Avith the saints, 
and prevailed against them; until the 
ancient of days came and judgment 
Avas given to the saints of the Most 
High, and the time came that the saints 
possessed the kingdom. Thus, he said, 



B. C, when the statue of Zeus was set 
up in the temple. 

Christ referred to this prophecy and 
spoke of another time when the con- 
tinual burnt offering would be 
stopped, (n) He told his followers 
how they should escape from the 
doomed city. 

When in 70 A. D. the city was de- 
stroyed, the continual burnt offering 
ceased for the second time. It did not 
begin again until 615 A. I), when the 
Persians, aided by the Jews, conquered 
and held Jerusalem for thirteen years. 
The Persians gave the government of 
the city over to the Jews in return for 
their help against the Romans. The 
city was recaptured in 628 A. D. by the 
Romans. Jewish temple worship then 
was stopped for the third and last 
time. 

Daniel(o) says after the burnt offer- 
ing is taken away there shall be .1290 
days. 

A trial of the three desolations in- 
dicates that this prophecy belongs to 
the last; adding 1290 and 028, we get 
the date 1918^ A. D. Plainly, this 
date(p) is the end of "a time, times, 
and a half," of Daniel. A "Time" 
being another name for a "Day" per- 
iod, this therefore appears to be the 
middle point in Daniel's Seventieth 
Week. Daniel also says, "Blessed is 
he that waiteth, and eometh to the 
thousand three hundred and five and 
thirty clays, "(o) The sum of 628 and 
13)35 is the date 1963 A. D. This is 
evidently the closing date of the Fourth 
Day, and is certainly a date when de- 
vout persons will rejoice. \\e have 
here in the Fourth Day of Daniel's 
Seventieth Week a beginning date from 
Revelation, with a middle and closing 
date from Daniel. The dates are 1871, 
1918 and 1963 A. D. 



The fourth beast shall be a fourth 
kingdom upon earth, Avhich shall be 
diverse from all the kingdoms, and 
shall devour the whole earth, and 
shall tread it down, and break it in 
pieces. And as for the ten horns, out 
of this kingdom shall ten kings arise; 
and another shall arise after them; 
and he shall be diverse from the form- 
er, and he shall put down three kings. 
And he shall speak words against the 
Most High, and shall wear out the 
saints of the Most High; and he shall 
think to change the times and the 
law; and they shall be given into his 
ham! until a time and times and half 
a time. But the judgment shall be set, 
and they shall take away his dominion, 
to eonsnme and destroy it unto the 
end. And the kiugdom and the domin- 
ion, and the greatness of the kingdoms 
under the whole heaven, shall be given 
io the people of the saints of the Most 
Higli: his kingdom is an everlasting 
kingdom, and all dominions shall 
serve and obev him." 

(i) Ezekief 4:4-8: Num. 14:34 
"Moreover lie thou upon thy left side, 
and lay the iniquity of the house of 
Isreal upon it ; according to the num- 
ber of the days that thou shall lie upon 
it, thou shall bear their iniquity. For 
I have appointed the years of their 
iniquity to be upon thee a number of 
<!.i\s, even three hundred and ninety 
days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity 
of the house of Israel. And again, 
when thon hast accomplished these, 
thou shalt lie upon thy right side, and 
shalt bear the iniquity of the house 
of Jndah : forty days, each day for a 
voav, have I appointed it unto thee. 
And thou shalt set thy face toward the 
siege of Jerusalem, with thine arm un- 
eovered : and thou shalt prophesy 
ro;>;ainst it. And, behold, I lay bands 
npon thee, and thou shalt not turn thee

Reading text. 
The Day is almost exactly divided 
at its middle point (r), and it must be 
the mid-day of Daniel's Seventieth 
Week. Exact Mid-Day apparently 
falls between 1917 and 1918; thus 46 
years stand before and 46 years after 
that event. The treaty following the 
war must be the event, that in 1918, 
marks the consummation of this proph- 
ecy. The movement of Jews to Pales- 
tine, called Zionism, has evidently at 
its foundation, a rather clear under- 
standing of these two prophecies, (o) 
At the time of the second and 
"Blessed" consummation in 1963 A. D. 
the Jew should be settled and satisfied 
in the possession of Palestine. 

Two meanings attach to many fig- 
ures in Revelation. The first four let- 
ters to the churches plainly cover the 
events in the corresponding Days of 
Daniel's Seventieth Week. The sec- 
ond application appears as perfect as 
if it had been written for that case 
alone. We must admit that the Mo- 
hammedan and Christian churches do 
not satisfy as complete types for the 
two prophets in Revelation. 

John gives a rule which shows how 
impossible is the usual thought that 
Jehovah is identical with Moham- 
med's god: "Hereby know ye the 
Spirit of God: every spirit that con- 
fcssclh that Jesus Christ is come in the 
flesh is of God: and every spirit that 
eonfesseth not Jesus is not of God: and 
this is the spirit of the antichrist" — (s) 

In the Koran's 112th chapter, Mo- 
hammed denies Christ's sonship to 
God.(t) The two military clinches on- 
ly partly exemplify the conditions of 
the ministry of the two prophets. We 
therefore look for a future complete 
fulfillment. 

Daniel gives just one more date 
which is 2300 daws after the time the 



References, 
from one side to the other, till thou

(j) Dan. 9:27 "And he shall make 
a firm covenant with many for one 
week : and in the midst of the week he 
shall cause the sacrifice and. the obla-

abominations shall come one that 
maketh desolate; and even unto the 
full end, and that determined, shall

continual burnt offering' is taken 
away.(u) This is either 2131, 2370 or 
2928 A. D., according to which of the 
three desolations may be meant. This 
date must mark the closing of the Fifth 
Day of Daniel's Week. During this 
Fifth Day period men who do not have 
the seal of God on their foreheads will 
suffer torment. They shall desire to 
die and death will flee from them.(v) 
This torment, we are twice told, lasts 
five months. This is the equal of 150 
years by our key.(i) Sanitary science 
with State control of diet and disease, 
will then probably lengthen life to 
about that average. The torment , is 
doubtless a troubled conscience doing 
its work. 

The great strength of religious pur- 
pose that follows the appearance of the 
heavenly visitors on the Mountain of 
Olives, where the Lamb gives the glory 
of his presence, has started the Fifth 
Day with the maximum of faith and 
devotion. The period resembles the 
First Day with its conquering church 
(w) and evangelical purpose. 

The Sixth Day must begin at one of 
the three dates— 2131, 2370 or 2928 A. 
D. The beginning date is uncertain, 
and the date of its end is unknown and 
unknowable, except to persons then 
living who read the signs of the times. 

The greatest of all wars, Tlar-Mage- 
don (Armagedon), occurs in the Sixth 
Day. We may not learn the duration 
of that day. Christ said "But of that 
day or that hour knoweth no one, not 
even the angels in heaven, neither the 
Son, but the Father. "(x) Christ's 
words, just quoted, show how impos- 
sible it is that the preaching, death and 
resurrection of the two prophets should 
occur in the Sixth Dq l y.(d') The pas- 
sages are mutually exclusive. From a 
careful studv of onr ehnrt, and the in- 



after them; and he shall be diverse 
from the former, and he shall put down 
three kings. And he shall speak words 
against the Most High, and shall wear 
out the saints of the Most High; and 
he shall think to change the times 
and the law; and they shall be given 
into his hand until a time and limes 
and half a time."

host; and it took away irom him the 
eonl inual burnt-offering, and the place 
of his sanctuary was cast down. And 
the host was given over to it together 
with the continual burnt-offering 
through transgression ; and it east down 
truth to the ground, and it did its 
pleasure and prospered. Then I heard 
a holy one speaking; and another holy 
one said unto that certain one who 
spake, How long shall be the vision 
concerning the continual bnrnt-offor- 
ing, and the transgression that maketh 
desolate, to give both the sanctuary and 
the host to be trodden under foot ? And

ternal evidence of the passages, to- 
gether with all related Scripture, we 
see that the experience of the two 
prophets is the experience of the Jew- 
ish and Christian churches from 1918 
to the close of Daniel's Seventieth 
Week. 

John gives us the means for finding 
the beginning date of the Fourth Day. 
Daniel gives the middle and closing 
dates. The Day has 92 years. Half of 
this Day is 4G years. The first half 
(mmIs about the close of 1917 A. D. Dan- 
iel gives the middle and closing dates, 
1918 and 1963 A. D., implying that both 
these dates belong in the . last half 
week, since Daniel gives dates only in 
thai period, aside from the starting 
date of the first half week. 

The series of events, influences and 
acts that deprived the Pope of Tem- 
poral Power culminated toward the 
close of 1871 A. D. The corresponding 
date in 1917 is just 46 years after that 
date. This date (1917) is mid-day in 
the middle Day of Daniel's Seventieth 
Week. Daniel implies that "the end" 
is in 1918 A. D., at the close of the first 
half week of the Gentiles. At that

stand, (z) These prophecies were be- 
ginning to be unsealed twenty years 
;!;'.-;>. Confusion of dates in the five 
centuries preceding the birth of Christ 
was then being corrected, and schol- 
ars next found the Moses-Ezekiel key 
to Daniel's prophecy of sixty-nine 
weeks. The first Zionist Congress met 
in P.asel in August 1897. Zionists are 
now settled in Palestine and more 
will go. 

By the Moses-Ezekiel key 1918 and 
li96S are the Zionists' important 
dates. (o) At the latter date Christ 
and 144,000 saints will appear on the

let not them that are in the country 
enter therein. For these are the clays 
of vengeance, that all things which 
are written may be fulfilled. Woe unto 
them that are with child and to them 
that give suck in those days! for there 
shall be great distress upon the land, 
and wrath upon this people."

In the midst of the sixth trumpet 
blast, John was given a revelation by 
seven thunder voices, and told by a 
voice from heaven, "Seal up the 
things (D) which the seven thunders 
uttered, and write them not." The 
same voice later commanded him to 
eat a book. He found it sweet in his 
mouth but bitter in his stomach. Voices 
then commanded, "Thou must(E) 
prophesy again over many peoples and 
nations and tongues and kings." He 
is then given what must be the sealed- 
up message of the seven thunder 
voices. (j3) and(d) In this message 
forty-two months is the First Half 
Week, and 1200 days is the Last Half 
Week. The three and a half days the 
prophets lie dead, are that number of 
years the devil is loosed in the world 
after the close of the Seventh Hay. It 
must be also the Day of final judg- 
ment. (F) In our chart of Revelation, 
the middle horizontal group and the 
middle perpendicular column are the 
ones carrying the greater number of 
points of special interest. Remember- 
ing who gave John this Revelation, we 
are not surprised that these groups 
form a symmetrical cross. 

Many men have fallen into the error 
of thinking Mohammed's god the same 
as Jehovah. Mohammed h i m s e 1 f 
taught that the two are identical ; but 
his teaching in the 112th chapter of the 
Koran clearly denies that God is or can 
be the Father of Christ. (t) Moham- 
med is therefore a false teacher. But 
the Scriptural "False Prophet" will 
be the world's ruling government dur- 
ing the Second Half of the Seventieth 
Week : just as the Roman Empire dom- 



is He begotten : and there is not any 
one like unto Him." From Geo. Sale's 
translation of the Koran, Chapter 112.

(v) Rev. 9:1-11 "And the fifth 
angel sounded, and I saw a star from 
heaven fallen unto the earth : and there 
was given to him the key of the pit 
of the abyss. And he opened the pit 
of the abyss; and there went up a 
smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of 
a great furnace; and the sun and the 
air were darkened by reason of the 
smoke of the pit. And out of the 
smoke came forth locusts upon the 
earth; and power was given, them, as 
the scorpions of the earth have power. 
And it was said unto them that they 
should not hurt the grass of the earth, 
neither any green thing, neither any 
tree, bnt only such men as have not the 
seal of God on their foreheads. And it 
was given them that they should not 
kill them, but that they should be tor- 
mented five months: and their torment 
was as the torment of a scorpion, when 
it striketh a man. And in those days 
men shall seek death, and shall in no 
wise find it; and they shall desire to 
die, and death fleeth from them. And 
the shapes of the locusts were like 
unto horses prepared for war: and 
upon their heads as it were crowns like 
unto gold, and their faces were as 
men's faces. And they had hair as 
the hair of women, and their teeth 
were as the teeth of lions. And they 
had breastplates, as it were breast- 
plates of iron ; and the sound of their 
wings was as the sound of chariots, 
of many horses rushing to Avar. And 
they had tails like unto scorpions, and 
stings; and in their tails is their power 
to hurt men five months. They have 
over them as king the angel of the 
abyss ; his name in HebreAV is Abaddon 
and in the Greek tonarue he hath the

Germany's ruler evidently thinks 
Mohammed a true prophet, and acting 
in that belief, directs his officers serv- 
ing in Turkey to worship with Moham- 
medans. These prophecies tell plain- 
ly what the war's outcome will be. 
Daniel says(h) that after three and a 
half times, meaning in 1918 A. D., 
"judgment shall be set, and they shall 
take away his dominion." Evidently, 
Hi is judgment is the peace treaty con- 
ference. The Pope renounced claim to 
Temporal Power in 1914. The Kaiser 
by his acts, makes every claim to such 
Imperial Roman Power. The Kaiser 
will be defeated as this studv shows, 
between 1917 and 1918 A. D.(h) 



APOLOGY. 

This solution of DANIEL and REV- 
ELATION has, probably, also been 
made, by many other Bible students. 
They were prevented from publishing 
the solution ; because they could not 
assert, that they believed man could live 
and be under conviction for sin, dur- 
ing a lifetime of 150 years. Recent 
advances in medical science have given 
the means for producing immunity. 
The next generation is to be immun- 
ized against the leading kinds of infec- 
tion. They will thus avoid old-age 
changes, that come from poisons of 
various disease germs; thereby enab- 
ling men to live to such ages as were 
common in the time of Abraham. This 
lengthening of life is the condition 
foretold for the Fifth Day of the Sev- 
entieth Week. AVe have seen how both 
Jewish and Christian prophecies cen- 
ter on the year 1963 A. D. as the clos- 
ing date in the Fourth Day. Sufficient 
time, therefore, is afforded to see what 



name Apollyon.

immunization will do towards lciu-ih- 
ening life. The author expects to see 
a vast army, who are nearing the een- 
tury mark, and are still young, when 
the momentous date 19G3 is passed. 

Now a word of caution and advice: 
— The physician best fitted to give you 
this immunization treatment is your 
family doctor. Seek and follow his 
advice. 

The author is a country doctor. The 
problem of prophecy appeals to him as 
an attractive field for investigation 
and speculation. We claim no special 
ability nor insight. Our thesis stands 
or falls by its own qualities. If a read- 
er fails to agree with our conclusions, 
the remedy lies in producing a better 
solution and publishing it. Many such 
solutions should appear. We are con- 
vinced that "a time, times, and a half" 
(H), meaning half of the Gentiles' 
Week, is to be completed within a 
year. It is therefore mid-week and 
nearly noon. Daniel clearly states in 
his last chapter that at the end of three 
and a half times "They that are wise 
shall understand." 

Read his nine closing verses in the 
light of this study: "Then I, Daniel, 
looked, and, behold, there stood other 
two, the one on the brink of the river 
on this side, and the other on the brink 
of the river on that side. And one said 
to the man clothed in linen, who was 
above the waters of the river, 'How 
long shall it be to the end of these 
wonders?' And T heard the man 
clothed in linen, who was above the 
waters of the river, when he held up 
his right hand and his left hand unto 
heaven, and sware by him that liveth 
for ever thai it shall be for a time, 
limes, and a half; and when they have 
made an end of breaking in pieces the 
power of the holy people, all these 



burnetii with, brimstone." 

Kev. 16:13-14 "And I saw coming out 
of the mouth of the dragon, and out of 
the mouth of the beast, and out of the 
mouth of the false prophet, three un- 
clean spirits, as it were frogs: for they 
are spirits of demons, v\ r orking signs; 
which go forth unto the kings of the 
whole world, to gather them together 
unto the war of the great day of God, 
the Almighty."

Halves of Week.

(II) Dan. 12:7 "And I heard the 
man clothed in linen, Avho was above 
the waters of the river, when he held 
up his right hand and his left hand un- 
to heaven, swear by him that liveth for 
ever that it shall be for a time, times, 
and a half; and when they have made 
an end of breaking in pieces tin 1 pow- 
er of the holy people, all these things 
shall be finished." 

Dan. 7:25 "And he shall speak words 
against the Most High, and shall wt-ar 
Out the saints of the Most High ; and 
he shall think to change the 
times and the law; and they shall be 
given into his hand until a time and 
times and half a time." 

Rev. 12:14 "And there were given 
to the woman the two wings of the 
great eagle, that she might fly into the 
wilderness unto her place, where she 
is nourished for a time, and times, and 
half a time, from the fae a of the ser- 
pem."

things shall be finished. And I heard, 
but I understood not; then said 1, 
my lord, what shall be the issue of 
these things? And he said, Go thy 
way, Daniel; for the words are shut 
up and sealed till the time of the end. 
Many shall purify themselves, and 
make themselves white, and be re- 
fined; but the wicked shall do wicked- 
ly; and none of the wicked shall un- 
derstand; but they that are wise shall 
understand. And from the time that 
the continual burnt-offering- shall be 
taken away, and the abomination that 
maketh desolate set up, there shall be 
a thousand two hundred and ninety 
days. Blessed is he that waiteth and 
Cometh to the thousand three hundred 
and five and thirty days. But go thou 
thy way till the end be, for thou shalt 
rest, and shalt stand in thy lot, at the 
end of the days." Dan. 12:5-13. 



Postscript. 

The Church's view of the impor- 
tance of Daniel's and John's prophe- 
cies is well illustrated in the picture 
of "HIS HOLINESS POPE PIUS X. 
WITH PAPAL CROWN AND 
ROBES OF STATE" as seen in EN- 
CYCLOPEDIA AMERICANA, edi- 
tion of 1906. The Triple Crown and 
the breastplate with its three horns, 
show the Church's claim to the pro- 
phecy of the three kings and three 
horns subdued and conquered by the 
Church.

The triple manifestations of Satan are first, during Old Testament 
times as the Serpent, the Devil and the Dragon: second, as the Seven- 
headed-ten-horned-beast, during the first half of the Seventieth Week; 
and third, as the False Prophet, 666, and the Two-horned-beast, dur- 
ing the last half of the Seventieth Week. These three are finally cast 
together into the lake of fire. 

The Devil as "prince of this world" was defeated, judged and 
cast out when Christ made the Atonement. (See John 12:31, 14:30 
and 16:1 1). But the Devil immediately exerted his influence through 
the Roman government, as the Sevcn-headed-ten-hornedbeast of 
Daniel and Revelation. 

The False Prophet is evidently a World Government, composed 
of two lesser governments, just as the Roman Empire was composed 
of ten kingdoms. The False Prophet is also called "666". The He- 
brew Letters forming the word Nero also mean 666. Nero's leading 
characteristic was avarice. Flis officer Florus by taking temple- 
treasure caused the revolt which ended in the destruction of Jeru- 
salem. Revelation 13th chapter and 1 I th verse and onward, show 
this avaricious character of "666". 

At the close of the war the belligerents must arrange to pay their 
debts. They quite completely divide the world into two groups. 
Thus the conditions are present to fulfill the prophetic activities of 
"666, Two-horned-beast and False Prophet." 

The author believes that the treaty closing the war is to be the 
working agreement which will constitute the "Two-horned-beast, 
False Prophet and 666."
